I am a graduate of Susquehanna University with a BM in Music Education and The Catholic University of America with an MM in Piano Pedagogy. My lineage of piano teachers can be traced back to Artur Schnabel, Carl Czerny and even Beethoven! I have performed in recitals at The White House and The Kennedy Center. Currently, I am the accompanist for Dignity Washington, and a chorus member of Choralis. I enjoy bringing my passion for music and the performing arts to McLean and providing our students with the best avenues to find their inner creativity and shine brightly on stage! In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my partner, Brad, and my dog, Chesska. I am a Lionel Train collector and operator and a member of the Train Collector’s Association Eastern Division. I maintain a massive collection and layout of Lionel Trains dating from the Postwar era to the modern era in my train room.
